Transition
Dear Parents, Carers and Students,
We warmly welcome you to The Bishop of Winchester Academy and are looking forward to working with you to support the education, personal development and well-being of your child as they go on to achieve their full potential.
Our ultimate aim as an Academy is to enable our students to be the very best that they can be and ‘live life to the full’ to help them grow and mature into amazing, well-rounded young adults who are provided with the best life chances to set them up for their future.
The Transition from primary to secondary school is a very exciting time; however, we do understand that it can also be a time of worry, anxiety and uncertainty for children and parents. We want to ensure that the process is a happy and calm one. Therefore, we will be working closely with you to ensure a positive start to your child's education here at The Bishop of Winchester Academy.
As an academy we want to ensure the year 6's have an insight into life at Bishop. We will be having our two transition days on Thursday 27th June and Friday 28th June 2024.
Our transition team will be in regular contact with your child's primary school in the coming weeks. We use this as an opportunity to gather useful information about your child so that we are able to best support them from the moment they join us.
Our Induction Booklet which will provide you with useful information in preparation for your child's transition to the academy.
Finally, please be assured that your child and their transition to secondary school is at the forefront of our minds. Please do not hesitate in contacting us with any questions. If you would like to contact the academy, please send communication to our transition email address: transition@tbowa.org
We wish your child the very best over the coming months and look forward to them joining us as Year 7 students in September.
